flip a coin.
I own a 35% Jtec Panzl, and a 33% WH 260... and Both are amazing planes.

I would say in this case go with wich ever one your gut likes.. you really can't go wrong!

I like the looks of the WH Sukhoi. I also like the way WH planes fly.

I agree with Sleepy. I know guys who have or had the AW260 or the JTEC and they loved both. Have also heard good things about Wildhare, although have not seen them fly. I say go with the one that looks best to you and have a blast. Craig

Well Obviously I am very biased so I am going to stay out of this as much as possible but if I were looking at one of our 35% JTEC planes for 3D and some IMAC I would be looking at the Panzl. I will put it up against any 35% airplane out there. You can ask our customers that have the panzl and they will tell you how awesome it flies.

I suck as a pilot compared to a lot of the guys on this site, and the PANZL makes me look good. I have to say... it ROCKS...

Its VERY solid in every attitude.
and floats very nicely. If I ever kill it.. I would get another in a heartbeat!

Keven, Is the Panzl better than the 330 mid wing for 3D stuff? With the Panzl's small rudder and elevators I assumed its forte was IMAC. The Panzl that I seen at our field disappeared or was sold within a few months. The larger J-Tec 40% extra appeared to fly better in the 3D stuff by the same pilot.

No way is the rudder too small on the Panzl. Just wanted to share an email I recieved the other day:


I flew this aircraft that you have done up in the BullDog colors , It
is the best flying plane I have ever touched ! I'am looking to sell my
coastal performance edge 540 to get a panzl . If you know anyone
wanting this 35% plane let me know so I can get me a Panzl !

This plane is not one in your list in the thread, but do not leave it out. I have seen 2 of them fly..... JeeUm's flew spectacular..

The only reason I even mention it here is because the Extra really isn't available yet.
